Because of the robber and the sudden coma, Ren Xiaosu returned late. He took a look at the sky was about to be covered by darkness. It was extremely dangerous to take prey through the market town with his prey.

During the day, people from shelter barriers come out to rule the order, and at night those people return to the barriers.

Of course, the people in the shelter barrier are definitely not kind-hearted, but they are worried that too chaotic market towns will affect the labor of refugees.

"Oh, Ren Xiaosu has gained a lot today!"

When Ren Xiaosu carried an iron pot into the market town, someone greeted him, and the man's face was dark, as if he had never washed his face since he was born.

Many people in the market town are like this. On weekdays, they go to nearby coal mines to dig coal in exchange for food. The coal is transported into shelter barriers, and then the workers can get black bread or potatoes that have just survived.

Not only digging coal, but also the dirty and tiring work required in the barrier will be done by people outside the barrier.

The well water in the market town is quota, so no one can think of consuming too much every day. There is no clean water source nearby, or clean water source is too dangerous, and there are wild beasts gathering drinking water. Therefore, the people in the market town are so dirty that they can't see clearly, and Ren Xiaosu is no exception.

It’s just that Ren Xiaosu never digs coal, he has his own way of survival.

At this time, Ren Xiaosu didn't respond when he saw someone saying hello. He just wanted to return to his shack quickly.

Just when Ren Xiaosu passed by the small road in the market town, there was a towering wall not far away. When he looked up, he felt as if he could not see the end of the sky.

There are not many earth and stone buildings in the market town, but more of them are shed-like residences.

Ren Xiaosu, who was originally quite relaxed, suddenly became alert after entering the market town. He even pulled out a bone knife from his waist. The atmosphere on the street became solemn, as if there was something dangerous hidden in the shacks. However, when Ren Xiaosu pulled out the bone knife, the people who were ready to move calmed down again.

The first thing Ren Xiaosu learned to live here is not to trust anyone...except Yan Liuyuan.

A whisper came from the shack next to the road: "Ren Xiaosu actually caught his prey again."

"That's what kind of prey, just a sparrow."

"This is different from the sparrows in old textbooks. I guess the eagle before the disaster was that big, right?"

"Don't mess with him," a voice ended the whisper, as if someone knew Ren Xiaosu's past.

Ren Xiaosu lifted the curtain of his house, and the warmth inside made his body no longer so stiff.

Yan Liuyuan, who was sitting in the shack doing homework, looked up and saw Ren Xiaosu coming back, and was surprised: "Have you hit the sparrow?"

"Why don't you light a kerosene lamp?" Ren Xiaosu asked with a frown.

Yan Liuyuan is actually not well-behaved, at least not in front of people other than Ren Xiaosu. However, when facing Ren Xiaosu, the "brother", he will always be more docile: "I want to save some kerosene for my family."

"What if I have myopia?" Ren Xiaosu put down the sparrow.

Yan Liuyuan's eyes lit up and said, "The teacher in the school said that there were glasses before the disaster. He also said that there are actually some things now, but in the barriers of refuge, even if you have this thing, you are not afraid of myopia."

Ren Xiaosu disdained this statement: "I have seen someone tell you something, but entrusting your vision in this wilderness to an object that may fall at any time is equivalent to dying. Don't listen to your gentleman's bragging, some of your gentleman's words may not be correct."

"Oh..." Yan Liuyuan nodded: "Then do you send me to school?"

Ren Xiaosu choked: "Why is that much nonsense?"

"When will I be able to hunt with you?" Yan Liuyuan asked.

"What are you learning to hunt when you are only 14 years old? You don't need to hunt if you go to school to learn it well," Ren Xiaosu said. "How to settle accounts when learning how to learn physics and chemistry, will it be better than hunting at that time?"

"You are only 17 years old," Yan Liuyuan was dissatisfied.

In this era, even the most barbaric people knew the importance of knowledge.

This is also the reason why teachers can survive in the market town. No matter what chaos happens in the market town, teachers are always the safest ones, and no one will have the idea of ​​teaching teachers.

However, the tuition fee is expensive, otherwise Ren Xiaosu himself would like to listen.

Ren Xiaosu skillfully dissected the sparrow while setting up an iron pot: "What did the gentleman talk about today? This sparrow can only give you some internal organs, and the others will be sold tomorrow."

"Are you injured?" Yan Liuyuan frowned when he saw the wound on Ren Xiaosu's mouth. It was pecked out by the sparrow and blood flowed continuously.

The big iron pot was mounted on the stick, and the fire pit in the shack made Ren Xiaosu's cheeks look light and dark: "Small wound."

The room fell silent. After a while, Ren Xiaosu took out the sparrow's internal organs from the pot and handed them to Yan Liuyuan: "I'll eat it."

Yan Liuyuan's eyes suddenly turned red: "I won't eat it, you need to recover from the injury."

"I'll just drink some soup," Ren Xiaosu said: "I still have black bread."

"I don't eat it. You are not a minor injury at all. I saw someone in the market town die of an inflammation and infection due to a little wound. There is no medicine here," Yan Liuyuan said stubbornly, tears were almost shedding.

Bang.

Ren Xiaosu suddenly slapped Yan Liuyuan in the face and said, "Remember, you can't cry if you and I live in this world. This world doesn't believe in tears."

Ren Xiaosu continued, "Look at who we are all around us. When you are not full, someone rushed in and stabbed me to death at night. I asked you to go to school, but I just don't want you to go hunting like me. You have special abilities. As long as you study hard, you don't have to get up early and go to the wilderness to make a living like me. I asked you to go to school, but I don't want you to become as savage as them!"

Yan Liuyuan suddenly took the sparrow's internal organs handed over by Ren Xiaosu and swallowed them voraciously. The tears did not fall after all. He had to learn to be as strong as Ren Xiaosu.

"Ahem, after eating, I took a clean cloth to bandage my wound," Ren Xiaosu said.

"Oh," Yan Liuyuan agreed.

"I'm usually quite weird outside, but why do I get home like a little slut?" Ren Xiaosu sighed: "What happened in the market town today."

"By the way," Yan Liuyuan said while looking for clean cloth: "A group of people came out of the shelter barrier and said they wanted to find a guide who could lead the way to shelter barrier No. 112. They wanted to cross the border mountain directly."

"Go to shelter No. 112?" Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment and frowned: "I still have to go to Jingshan?"

"Do you think they will look for you? Everyone in the market town knows that you are familiar with the outside," Yan Liuyuan said with a blink of an eye: "I heard that they are bands and singers in shelter No. 113. They were invited to perform at shelter No. 112. I have never seen a singer before."

"I won't go," Ren Xiaosu shook his head: "Whoever loves to go in the area of ​​Jingshan? If you hide from them, this group of people is strange."

Ren Xiaosu was in a complicated mood at this time. What kind of world is this? There are people who specialize in singing and bands? What does it look like in the shelter barrier?
